He loves apples & almonds and chopped up fresh greens like kale and butter lettuce and spinach. Swiper also likes dried fruits and veggies, His favorite is dried pineapple and dried mango.

He hangs out on my shoulder and lean against my chin. He loves to spend time with my granddaughters Bailey, Sara and True (his grand sisters)Swiper was born 2-11-08 so he is still learning where the good spots are. He loves his sleepy hut. When he has a bath he likes to get nice and warm in his sleepy hut.

I hate staying up past my bedtime. Having to put on that stupid flight suit is a BIG pain! I prefer to be FREE but mommy and daddy do not like me pooping on them. I hate it when Suzy, the Congo African Grey who lives at our house, climbs over my cage and dumps my food dish on the floor.

She LOVES me to the moon and back! She is teaching me so many things, tricks, new foods, ( I still prefer my pellets and usually toss the other stuff out of my bowl) Mommy bought some Jungle Munchies. Mmmmmm that is GOOD STUFF! and she is trying to teach me words. I just wish I could speak her people talk. Maybe soon. I have the nicest house with lots of toys to shred. She even puts up with my high pitched shrieking! I have now learned to say Nite Nite, supper, what's for supper, kiss, and step up. I say them kinda funny but everybody knows what I mean.

I love to steal food from them and then run away like crazy, laughing the whole time! I love eating on top of our glass topped dining table. I can swipe food from mommy and daddy. I like to see my people's feet! Speaking of feet, Swiper runs from my shoulder to my feet and nibbles on my toes. Every time I eat I take a bath in my water dish! I love water! Mommy even takes me in the shower where I have a nice perch to stand on.(note to Mommy...I prefer my water dish.).

If I see it it's MINE!.

hellohi iam a sun conure to. you look so pretty.mom letting us do birdie notes and votes today, hope you have a great week. beaky vote for you romey

Hellomama came home from work and she went to the gracery store first. It is great when she shops for us. Today she brought some freash corn still on the cob. They gave it to her for us because they were going to throw it away. IT WAS STILL GOOD!! mama washed it and cut it up and gave us some. We also got some carrots, celery, cantalope, apples,grapes, blueberries,broccoli. Mama made us a medley. She does this daily. WE EXPECT IT!!! Bongo bit Rocky ( the Dog ) on the ear because he go between him and Mama. Rocky thought Mama did it. Rosey threw her seeds out on Mamas dedk and when Mama came home and saw it she said "ROSEY!!! What did you do this for?" and You can tell when one of us have been raised with children because Rosey said, " I didn't do that." Mama said "What is going on ? Now I have a bird that lies." Rosey didn't get in trouble, Mama just shook her head and cleaned it up. Well we will go now. Here is a vote for you.. Have a wonderful day.

I bet it is nice that you have many friends to play with! We have a human brother, Topher, who just turned 2 in March. Right now we are working on teaching him to bring us some snacks! He already shares his cheerios with us, but we are trying to teach him where all of the good stuff is hiden :) We all hope that you come back to see us soon! We would love to be your friends! Here's a vote for you!

Hi from Max (ie) the WonderBird!Hey Swiper! Thanks for visiting, and thanks for the congratulations. Are you liking it here at BC? There are so many great birds here to talk to. I see you have a flockmate named Suzy, I think I'll go meet her now...Have a great day and come see me anytime! Cya...

Hi from NuggetI love your pics! Doesn't it feel great when we snuggle up against you. It's been hot on the east coast so mom hasn't been putting on the blanket when she sits to watch tv and I just can't get comfortable. The little blankie just isn't cutting it. It's cooler tonight so hopefully mom will sit for a while with the big fullsize blanket so I can get comfortable and get a good snooze. :) Nighty night.

Hi from Max (ie) the WonderBird!Hey Swiper! Love the name! Welcome to Bird Channel. I see from your blog that your breeder is keeping in touch with you, how wonderful! Come and see me anytime, I love meeting new friends...Cya...

Hello from Swipers Nanny!!! =)haha, didn't know what to call myself! =) This is the breeder who raised Swiper! I think I got a vote in for you! I clicked on the VOTE button at the top of the page. It is gone now..so I think it worked. You are looking beautiful Swiper! And you sound like you are very happy!! Glad to hear you are doing so good. And to see how pretty you look! Good job Swiper and mom!

Hello from NuggetWhat a cute baby you are. Perseverance will have you talking. I say 'mommy' and 'nugget'. Daddy kept at it a LOT. Mom keeps trying to get me to say daddy or dadada but no luck, I love replying with 'mommy'. I think seeing feet would freak me out, lol. I don't like walking on the smooth table service, rather be on a human, guess I'm spoiled huh. Mom keeps trying to get me to eat my veggies but it's not working, hehe. The other day I tossed the cooked veggie out of my disk then picked it up again and tossed it over the side of the cage - goooodbye. Last night I took one look at the veggie and ran the other way. Thinking oh, no, not again. I'm outta here. Welcome to BC stop by and chat.
